Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 He's history chaps...removed from the Model Flying site. his IP address was showing as Laos & he only joined earlier today.... The Mod Team do try & keep these people at bay but it's a never ending task. If you do see or receive anything suspicious please do report it to one of the Team & as Bob says do be careful when responding to an email expressing interest in a classified ad.

Bob Cotsford Posted May 20, 2018 Author Share Posted May 20, 2018 I was tempted to ask him to send double the asking price in cash and I would arrange for my agent to repay the balance by cheque when delivering the item for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
